Victoria $18 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Victoria and I'm a patient, responsible, and experienced caregiver offering child care, pet sitting, and household help. My journey began as an older sister caring for my younger siblings and their friends from the age of 13. I'm currently the devoted "auntie" to four children (ages 3–5) whom I regularly babysit and spend social time with, keeping me current on the unique needs and energy of the preschool age group. My care philosophy is based on being an attentive, reliable, and warm presence—someone who can follow a routine while also inventing fun, spontaneous activities. My caregiving extends to animals! I'm an experienced dog-sitter, acting as an "auntie" to three dogs for extended periods when their families travel. I'm comfortable with all aspects of dog care, including feeding, walking, and maintaining their schedules. I'm also happy to assist with household help, such as cleaning or running errands, to support your family's needs. I am an adaptable, calm, and proactive caregiver who truly enjoys nurturing and supporting those in my care.

Melissa $25 per hour for 1 child

I’ve been a nanny for 8 years, during which I’ve had the privilege of caring for children of all ages and abilities, including those with special needs. My background in healthcare, having studied at Carolina College of Health Sciences, has given me a deeper understanding of children’s health and well-being. I’ve also worked in a pharmacy, which enhanced my attention to detail, responsibility, and ability to manage care routines effectively. Throughout my nanny career, I’ve been committed to providing exceptional care, ensuring that children feel safe, supported, and stimulated. I engage children in educational activities, including early language skills like teaching Spanish, reading, and sensory play. I also enjoy planning outdoor outings and ensuring they have a balanced daily routine with meals, naps, and interactive play. My experience working with diverse families and special needs children has allowed me to develop patience, empathy, and strong communication skills. These qualities, combined with my medical background, make me a compassionate and capable caregiver.
